The iPhone 13 Pro running the latest and most up-to-date version of the operating system iOS, and specifically the version 15.0.2, hacked in record time. And in fact twice.
Αsince the Chinese government adopted rules to prevent security researchers from participating in international hacking competitions such as Pwn2Own, the annual international cybersecurity competition Tianfu Cup, which takes place in the city of T.cengu, is the "stadium" where China 's top hackers come down to show off their skills.
The last time the popular contest took place was last weekend, where her new smartphone Apple,, the iPhone 13 Pro running the latest and most up-to-date version of the operating system iOS, and specifically the 15.0 version.2, hacked in record time. And in fact twice.
The company team Kunlun Lab, whose CEO is a former head of technology Qihoo 360, managed to "break" the iPhone 13 Pro on stage using a remote holding (exploit) execute browser code Safari for mobile devices. And he did it in just 15 seconds.
Of course, it probably took months of preparation to get to this point, but the result was shocking and stormy. However, detailed details regarding the vulnerability or vulnerabilities exploited by the group were not disclosed.
However, her team Kunlun Lab she was not the only one who hacked it iPhone 13 Pro. The team Pangu, which has a history of "breaking" its devices Apple,, once again confirmed its reputation by claiming the top cash prize of 300.000 dollars for distance jailbreaking a fully updated iPhone 13 Pro with iOS 15.
Although, again, no details were provided on how this was achieved, reports indicate that a "one-click link" was used (one-click link) which activated a remote holding which bypassed its security mechanisms Safari.
The good news is that in these cases "hacking" is not a crime, as I have said over and over again.
After all, these hacker groups will hand over the details of the farms they located and used in Apple, so that the company can issue updates (patches) that will correct these vulnerabilities. I estimate that this will happen either in its version iOS 15.1 or in an upcoming security update iOS 15.0.
The bad news is that in the past there have been reports of Chinese government agencies using some of these vulnerabilities for espionage or surveillance before releasing updates that "sealed" these software vulnerabilities.
It should also be noted that Apple products were not the only "targets" of hackers during the competition Tianfu Cup 2021. Security researchers have also successfully exploited their vulnerabilities Windows 10Of microsoft Exchange and Google Chrome, including.
